Tax-Day Freebies, Deals in Palos Verdes

Tax Day—April 15—is Monday, and to lessen the pain, many restaurants and businesses with locations in and around Palos Verdes are offering freebies and deals.

Those who are stressed out can relax with a free HydroMassage in Torrance or escape from reality a bit and grab a free small popcorn at AMC Theaters. Free cinnamon bites, curly fries, copies and paper shredding also make the list this year.
